The Shear Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity of Nuclear Pasta
C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry
We calculate the shear viscosity and thermal conductivity of a nuclear pasta phase in neutron star crusts. This involves complex non-spherical shapes. We use semiclassical…

Thermal conductivity and phase separation of the crust of accreting neutron stars
C. J. Horowitz, O. L. Caballero, D. K. Berry
Recently, crust cooling times have been measured for neutron stars after extended outbursts. These observations are very sensitive to the thermal conductivity of the crust and…
